Chapter 1649: Counterattack Plan
After almost a stick of incense, the enemy army on the city wall was finally completely defeated, and only three or four thousand people rushed down from the city wall, as if they were preparing to flee.
The guards hurriedly seized the opportunity to occupy the city, and then began to open the gates with nooses.
With the opening of the city gate, several emperors on Ye Li's side let out involuntary cheers, opening the city gate means that the army can drive straight in, the defense of the city has been completely broken, and the battle can basically be declared victorious.
With the few remaining defenders in the city at this time, it is absolutely impossible to engage in a head-on battle with the besieging army.
The defenders of the city also knew this, so the remnants of the city head, under the leadership of the generals, began to flee.
Their escape was so fast that they couldn't care about the formation at this time, and ran towards the city gate on the other side like lost dogs.
The siege army in the rear began to pursue frantically, and under the slaughter all the way, only about 1,000 of the last defenders successfully escaped, and left the city without looking back.
The battle, with the assistance of the Flying Wing Regiment, ended in a flawless victory.
Ye Li, Feng Youling and the others had already entered the Heavenly City with the troops at this time, and they had already begun to clean up the battlefield and arrange the task of defense.
After everything was cleaned up, Ye Li, Tongfeng Youling and the others gathered together again.
"Lord Ye Li, the battle here is over, we probably only need to leave 10,000 people to defend the city temporarily, and the rest can be evacuated.
It won't be long before the alliance arranges for a formal defense army to come over. ”
Feng Youling said to Ye Li.
Ye Li nodded, thought for a while, and said, "I captured Wei Wuyue's son, the godson of the First Fu Sheng!"
Hearing Ye Li's sudden words, several emperors were stunned, and they looked a little unclear.
After being stunned for a long time, he reacted, his eyes widened and he looked at Ye Li, and Feng Youling exclaimed: "Big ...... My lord...... You...... What do you say?
You caught Wei Wuyue's son...... The godson of the first rune!?"
Ye Li hadn't heard much of Wei Wuyue's name, but Feng Youling and the others had heard of these names after all, as high-level officials.
The Tianxia Alliance and the Tongxin Alliance have been fighting for a long time, and the intelligence infiltration between the two sides has also been going on, and Wei Wuyue, as the right-hand man of the First Fu Sheng, is naturally a role that will be often mentioned.
Ye Li nodded and said, "In order to make war achievements, this guy came over with 20,000 people with the enemy's support troops.
It also took me a lot of effort to break up the 40,000-strong army, and then captured the two armies, He Wei, and this Wei Xiangming.
He Wei planned to rebel because he knew that he could no longer gain a foothold in the Tianxia League.
Even if he can go back, he will definitely bear the blame for Wei Xiangming, so he is willing to hand over all the information he knows to fight for a way to survive for himself. ”
Hearing Ye Li's words, Feng Youling and the others glanced at each other, their eyes full of incredulity.
"My lord, is this Wei Xiangming the son of Wei Wuyue, the godson of the first Fu Sheng?"
They had all heard of Wei Wuyue's name, but Wei Xiangming had never heard of it.
Ye Li nodded and said, "This guy is a bad breed, a pampered son, full of fantasies about the battlefield, thinking that he can easily earn military merits."
As a result, he put himself in danger and became our captive. ”
Feng Youling said: "My lord, what do you want to do with him, do you kill him or use him to blackmail Wei Wuyue and the First Fu Saint?"
Ye Li thought for a while and said, "I haven't figured out exactly how to do it, let's keep the lives of the two of us for the time being."
I've gotten a lot of information from them, and one of them is about the garrison.
That Wei Xiangming's army was a secret guard force behind the garrison city.
There are 40,000 troops stationed in the garrison city, and if you add this secret army, there are 60,000 people, which is basically difficult to capture.
But now this secret force is no longer there, and according to Wei Xiangming, it is impossible to replenish 20,000 people for the time being, so there will only be 40,000 people in the current garrison city.
We have 60,000 people here, and if we take a gamble and simply give up the defense of the Heavenly City and choose to attack the garrison directly, we may be able to take the city in one fell swoop.
If we can capture the garrison city, the army of the Concentric Alliance will be able to drive straight into the interior of the Tianxia Alliance, and we can also cut the other party from the inside, dividing and swallowing the forces of the Tianxia Alliance.
All in all, this garrison is of great strategic importance to us. ”
Feng Youling and the others' eyes widened when they heard this, they didn't think of taking the initiative to attack the cities inside the Tianxia Alliance at all, in their opinion, as long as they could hold on to their territory and not let the Tianxia Alliance invade, it would already be a victory.
Ye Li looked at everyone's expressions and suddenly smiled, and said, "Have you never thought of taking the initiative to attack the other party and choose to attack at a disadvantage?"
Feng Youling nodded unconsciously when he heard this, and said, "We really haven't thought about this, and we think about how to prevent the enemy's attack every day.
After all, our Concentric Alliance has always been short of troops, and it must be a lot worse than the World Alliance, so how can a thin child have the heart to fight a tall and sturdy adult. ”
Ye Li laughed when he heard this, and said, "That's right, you all think so, then the Tianxia Alliance on the other side must also think the same way."
They probably didn't think that we would dare to attack the garrison directly.
After all, in their opinion, even if we take the garrison city, it is impossible for us to defend it, so they will not have any special preparations.
If we can surprise and choose to take the initiative to attack, we will be able to completely hit the enemy's unguarded vital points.
And my other two secret legions are coming, as long as we can capture the garrison, then I promise you that we will definitely be able to stop the enemy's counterattack in a short time.
At that time, as long as the alliance's army presses up, we will be tantamount to digging a big hole in the interior of the Tianxia Alliance.
Several cities around the border between the two sides will soon be captured by us, and our battle zone will be directly advanced by the distance of several cities. ”
Hearing Ye Li's words, Feng Youling and the others all showed eager expressions on their faces.
Feng Youling swallowed his spit and said, "My lord, there are 40,000 defenders in the garrison city, and we still have nearly 50,000 troops in our hands.
If your wingers can hold down the opponent's defenses like they did in the previous sieges, then I think we should be able to find a way to get into the city. ”
